Need references for chassis/suspension fabrication work in Houston area please
Looking at a 31 Model A coupe that has C3 'vette rear in it. The seller is down to a very very low price. It has a C3 'vette rear suspension in it. Ride height is way too high, and the tires way too far outboard. I see no way to fix this, it's all due to the unsuitability of the C3 setup to a Model A.
I'm thinking that if I tale this plunge, the fastest, cheapest and easiest way to fix it would be to tear out the whole Corvette setup, and put a 4 link/coilover setup under the car with a Ford 9" rear.
I know what a 9" costs, and the associated parts, but can anyone give me a guesstimate of the labor? This is beyond my skill set. Also, does anyone have a shop in the Houston area they can recommend to do this work?
Thanks.
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
